How Clipperz works

Clipperz lets you submit confidential information into your browser, but your data are locally encrypted by the browser itself before being uploaded. The key for the encryption processes is a passphrase that never gets sent or saved to the server! Therefore no one except you can access your data.

Clipperz is simply in charge of delivering the Ajax code to your browser and then storing your data in an encrypted form on its servers. All encryption and decryption operations take place inside your browser.

The OFFSystem

What is OFF?

The Owner-Free Filesystem (or OFF) is a distributed filesystem in which everything is stored in reference to randomized data blocks, as opposed to a 1:1 copy of the original data being inserted. The creators of the Owner-Free Filesystem have coined a new term to define the network: A brightnet. Nobody shares any copyrighted files, and therefore nobody needs to hide away.
